That's not going to work within a custom tag, because the contents of
Attributes.query in this case will be a string, not a query object. You'd
have to add "Caller." to the string, to get that to happen:
Evaluate("Caller." & Attributes.Query)
If the query is to be referenced within the custom tag as the value for a CF
attribute, it shouldn't be necessary to use the Evaluate function:
<cfoutput query="Caller.#Attributes.Query#">
If the query itself were passed to the tag, like this:
<cf_mytag query="#xxx#">
then you'd be able to reference the query object directly from within the
custom tag - the query object is, I think, passed by reference when doing
this, just like structures are when evaluated within a custom tag attribute.
